The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy is a fighting game based on the television series of the same name. It was developed by High Voltage Software and published by Midway. The PlayStation 2 version's DVD compatibility feature came with behind the scenes footage and the season one episode "Little Rock of Horror". The game was released on many Nintendo consoles in the United States, but only on the Wii in the United Kingdom.

[edit] Storyline

When Grim's Mojo Balls get unleashed into Endsville, causing normal people to senselessly beat the tar out of each other (according to Grim, anyone touched by a Mojo Ball will be infected by supernatural rage), it's up to Billy, Mandy, Grim and Irwin to save the world. They trek through places from their episodes such as the underworld, the pumpkin patch and even Billy's backyard, following a trail of chicken feathers as they go. In the end, it turns out that Billy is to blame for the release of the Mojo Balls (he wanted to free Moe and Joe and Grim had put a curse on his trunk to prevent it from being opened, said curse causing whoever opened the trunk to sprout chicken tail feathers) and is defeated by Mandy in the end credits (she mentioned that she hoped if the game had a mode which she and the others could just beat on Billy). During the credits you get to play as Mandy and beat Billy senseless with a flamethrower, melee attacks, and thor's hammer. (This is the only point in the game where Billy does nothing to cause damage to the player in return).

[edit] Gameplay

The gameplay heavily mirrors that of the Power Stone series. In the game, you can execute light and heavy style attacks. Gameplay includes 2-4 player Multiplayer, solo, and co-op Story Mode and Mission Mode. The environment is very interactive, with the ability to manipulate many objects. There are different weapons scattered through all the levels, such as a halberd or a club. Treasure chests contain a variety of items including weapons, cupcakes, hamhocks (which restore health), and Mojo Balls that fill up your Mojo Meter. When the Mojo Meter fills once, a Mojo Smackdown can be performed, where the character attacks the opponent with a barrage of punches, kicks, and slaps, finally destroying the opponent with a piledriver. When the Mojo Meter fills twice, a Mojo Meltdown can be performed, instantly knocking out all opponents. Each round of fighting begins with banter from each character on the playing field. An opponent isn't fully defeated until their lives are depleted AND the player or another opponent attacks them, triggering a 'finishing blow' sequence, in which whoever hits them has to do 4 finishing blows, knocking that opponent of the arena and the game. In Story Mode, the game culminates with a battle against the brain-eating meteor from Little Rock of Horror.

[edit] Callbacks to Big Boogey Adventure

Although apparently taking place after the events of the Big Boogey Adventure, the game also has many references from it.

  • The Billybot and Mandroid alternate costumes of Billy and Mandy respectively are the same Billybot and Mandroid from the film. Also the Freeze Ray weapon appears to be partially based on Mandroid's gun.
  • Boogey is present in this game (in his outfit from "Bully Boogie") and his alternate costumes (Pirate and Lawyer) are the same ones from the film. His banter is also taken from the film (what he said before using Horror's Hand to apparently blow Grim up: "I think I'll take this opportunity to scare you to pieces!") and he uses Horror's Hand in his Mojo Meltdown move, despite the fact that Horror's Hand is also a separate one-handed, one-hit KO melee weapon.
  • Grim's Banter is partially based on something he said in BBA (Him saying that Billy and Mandy can't "Mix my business with your pleasure").
  • Fred Fredburger appears in a Hawaiian shirt costume.
  • Scenes from the movie are available as arenas or unlockable concept art.
  • The Bask-Eye-Ball Mode is based on the Cyclops duo from the film (since the Cyclops head goal resembles the Gatekeeper's head).
  • Dracula appears in a Cab Calloway-esqe costume.
  • Jack's character image is his picture from the film, shown when Boogey was describing a list of all who had stolen Grim's scythe.
  • The image of Horror's Hand in Boogey's Mojo Meltdown move is taken from the film (the hand shrieking when it sees that Grim is already living through his nightmare.)
  • While loading Boogey Down the River, a still of Boogey is the same as one in the movie when Billy was singing Scary-O.
  • When Mandy defeats Boogey, she says "I've seen marshmallows scarier than you". She spoke the same line in BBA.
  • When Billy is on fire, he says "Oh, oh, hot, HOT- but it's a dry heat" is a reference to BBA when he said "but it's a dry heat" in exactly the same manner.

[edit] References to other episodes

  • Billy's banter is partially based on something he said in "Keeper of the Reaper" ("Destroying stuff makes me feel so alive!")
  • Dracula's Mojo Meltdown consists of disco dancing, similar to in Home Of The Ancients.
  • Eldridge-Johnson Mayer appears along with Cerberus (since he appears dormant in every other episode besides The Taking Tree), where hitting him will usually make him spit out a Mojo Ball, a birdbath, or a grill.
  • The announcer of the game is "Weird Al" Yankovic, who has played the Squid Hat in the Nigel Planter episodes of the show. Usually heard at throughout the menus, start and end of a fight and when a "player needs ham badly!".
  • The giant Fluffy Cat from He's Not Dead, He's My Mascot appears in "Coliseum of Chaos", where throwing someone or jumping onto him 3-5 times will make him cough up a hairball with a Mojo Ball, or a power loader inside.
  • Boogey's bio states a criminal record of being "Banished to the Nightmare Realm for impersonating a TV", a reference to both BBA (Nightmare Realm) and his debut episode "Bully Boogie" (both being banished and trying to scare Billy and Irwin via Billy's TV).
  • At least once in most levels, Pud'n can be seen tied to something, or in some other form of peril. Pud'n can be seen in a hole in "The Mead Hall", on a plank in "Down Under", sitting on a platform in "The Parapets", tied to the mast in "Boogey Down The River", stuck to the higher wall with some kind of gooze in the Chicken Mines, and sitting on a jar of eyeballs in "The Desk".
  • Sperg can also be seen three times during "Deep in Evil", crammed in a doghouse (due to the events witnessed in Substitute Teacher) inside Nergal's home in "Down Under", floating on the lava in the same doghouse in "The Parapets", and in the following cutscene.
  • At "The Desk", you can see a checker board with Nigel Planter and Lord Moldybutt pieces. This references Nigel Planter and the Chamber Pot of Secrets. Another reference to that episode is that there's a distinctive split in Toadblatt's desk.
  • The music in the credits of the game is "Into The Darkness" by SPF1000 from Battle of the Bands.
  • Billy was saying "Destroy us all!" in the ending credits like in Attack of the Clowns.
  • General Skarr says "Little boys should stick to spears and rocks." which is a reference to "Skarred for Life" when he beats Billy.
  • Nergal's winning quotation, "All the good things in life must be taken by force!" was also said by him in "Something Stupid This Way Comes"
  • Brandon, Mallory and Radical Reaper from "Hurter Monkey" appear together as an unlockable concept art.
  • Thor's Hammer is from "A Kick in the Asgard." Also, Billy's winning quotation is partially based on something he said in that episode (saying that "fighting is wrong")
  • The Black Knight's Sword first appeared in "Terror of the Black Knight".
  • The Atomic Frenzy Cakes first appeared in "Nursery Crimes."
  • The Thromnabular skull from "Wishbones" makes an appearance.
  • The Ice Cream Cart weapon is designed after the one from "Sister Grim."
  • The entire "Clucking Doom" level was inspired by the episode "Which Came First."
  • Cerberus from "Mandy Bites Dog" appears as a turret in "Burning Down the House."

[edit] References to popular culture

  • Jack's Mojo Meltdown is a pumpkin bomb like Hobgoblin's and the Green Goblin's pumpkin bombs from Spider-Man. (Courtesy of Marvel Comics Inc.)
  • General Skarr's Mojo Smackdown move consists of him throwing his hat similar to Odjob from Goldfinger and slicing his victim with an "S" in a Zorro-like fashion.
  • When Skarr beats a Nergling he says "Gotta Catch 'em All", this is a reference to the logo of Nintendo's popular video game/anime/manga series Pokémon
  • As stated previously, one of Dracula's costumes is reminiscent of a zoot suit typically worn by famous jazz musician Cab Calloway.
  • Billy makes a reference to Attack of the Killer Tomatoes when he defeats a pumpkin ("Doo, wait, these aren't killer tomatoes at all").
  • General Skarr cracks a reference to Ghostbusters when he defeats the giant pumpkin ("We have to cross the streams").
  • Grim makes a reference to Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope when he defeats Mandy ("Before, I was but a learner, but now I am the master").
  • Mogar makes a reference to Scarface (1983 film) when he beats Lord Pain. ("SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND!")
